5. Post videos whenever you like, but save your live videos for times that don’t overlap with Open mic performers.

6. Please make it a point to be kind and reach out to one another in this challenging time.

Join us as we delve into the Caffe Lena archive and bring an amazing concert with Jeanne O’Connor & The New Standard back to life. Jeanne will be hanging out in the chat room with us and you will have the opportunity to support these talented musicians and Caffe Lena through our virtual tip jar.

This big, fun jazz and soul band will make you fall in love the great songwriters of the 60s and 70s all over again. The group features beautiful four-part harmony, great grooves, and top-notch musicianship from six of upstate NY’s finest: singers Jeanne O’Connor and Mallory O’Donnell, drummer Sam Zucchini, bassist Tony Markellis, guitarist and singer Bob Warren, and pianist Peg Delaney.

The Caffe Lena Stay Home Sessions are performances recorded in the listening room, broadcast live for the community to enjoy during this uncertain time of social isolation. Please prioritize your health and well-being, and use these nightly live streams as a respite from the stress of our current situation.
